A group of Bangladeshi journalists, who went to India to cover the T20 World Cup, said a number of residential hotels in Mumbai refused to accommodate them because of their nationality.

You from Bangladesh? Sorry, no Bangladeshi passport is allowed in our hotel. There's no government permission, banglanews24.com quoted managers of Hotel Sea Green and Sea Green South as telling the 10 newsmen on Tuesday.

Other hotels blatantly refused to let the scribes stay.

Sorry we can't accommodate you because you are from Bangladesh, another hotel manager angrily told them, according to banglanews24.
